Not in the market now but would like to see any pics of the setup you have for sale.
Any summary on what the Rebello motor comprises of? Sounds like a wicked set up!

thanks to both you guys! Lets see.. 11:1 compression, J and E pistons, Calico coated bearings, custom baffled oil pan, Custom fittings welded in for oil cooler plumbing, Chevy Camaro 5.0 radiator (cheap, very light, and never runs hot), setrab oil cooler, custom headers, 450cc injectors. He's pretty secretive about the cams, I had some chicken scratches that it had duration 268/264 at .050. If you don't know what an electromotive Tec3r controller is, it is full engine control- everything is programmable, ignition and fuel. Its amazing all the different tables and graphs and settings.  Wide band feedback to the controller works great. Neat wideband LED gauge keeps you updated that mixture is right. Uses two electromotive coils. Front crank damper is custom of my own design, will not come apart like the stock ones can. This engine spins to 8k rpm. Going uphill, it gains nicely on E36 M3s. I will get some pics, but not for at least a few days.

Lock the thread really? I've been busy and the car is on jack stands right now. I just tried to upload 2 pics to hold people over, each below 500kb and I got "upload failed". Sorry. I guess maybe I'm locked out..?

I highly doubt it. He was probably joking. Try again whenever you get a chance

You don't really expect to see the word "beast" and "318" in the same sentence.

I post my pics to Photobucket or Picasa & link them in.  Em-bed-ded pics have been broken or disabled via some setting that I'm not smart enough to figure out...  Sorry for the inconvenience.
